What dependency does case 3 have on pfn_list? Why does it matter if
that bitmap_set() occurs before or after we've drained pfn_list? How
do we know we're in case 3 before we've looked at pfn_list?

I did miss the dma_last check, so that prevents us from repeating this
path, BUT we release iommu->lock if we enter the pfn_list !empty path.
The moment we do that, we might unblock a vendor driver trying to pin
or rw more pages. So the bitmap we've copied to the user might be stale
and incorrect. I don't see why this is so contentious, what is the
actual disadvantage to moving this until after we've drained pfn_list?
The risks seem abundant to me. Thanks,

Alex
